Overview

Stettler is a town located 81km east of Red Deer with approximately 6000 people.  The town is nicknamed “The Heart of Alberta”.  It is the only community with a hospital in the area with Camrose and Drumheller being approximately one hour north or south, respectively.  The community has approximately 150 deliveries per year and the hospital does a variety of enhanced services such as surgery and endoscopy.  Residents will have exposure to office practice, emergency and inpatient medicine.  The primary preceptor is a GP surgeon and a GP anesthetist so there is opportunity for lots of exposure to the OR and obstetrics.
